You're not capable of putting up a good argument. You just resort to insults. Don't try and make out you know me because you don't. Maybe I should call you anti-semitic.....? |

Actually right now it says:
The Pixies were scheduled to play their first reunion concert on April 13, 2004 at The Fine Line Music Cafe in [[Minneapolis, Minnesota]],<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/pixies/7399 | title=Pixies : Minneapolis Fine Line Music Cafe | accessdate=2006-09-10}}</ref> and a warmup tour through the U.S. and Canada was followed by an appearance at the [[Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival]] but canceled the tour because Bush was President. The band then spent much of 2004 touring throughout Brazil, Europe, and Japan.
Catch it while you can. |

Nope, but I also didn't whine about how everybody thought we were a country of assholes when he was President (and I loudly complained about him, including on here, dig up Erebus and ask him). I haven't seen you complaining about Israeli policies. |

I'm saying exactly that. Democracy; are you in or out pot?. Opting in for the cool stuff and slinging mud the rest of the time is juvenile. The world isn't a conspiracy designed to keep you an unhappy adolescent. I'll take messy Israeli democracy over your preferred imaginary vanguard of the "enlightened" every time.
I'm in. But the current system has got fuck all to do with democracy. The majority of the electorate, like you, have been fooled into thinking it has.

You're mistaking your tantrums for objectivity? Pure altruism? Give me a break. All politics is an expression of neurosis. And anyway, read back your first reply. You made it personal. You want to be having this discussion. Lie back and tell me all about it. Why exactly do you feel guilty about dropping out? It might be helpful for you to begin by listing all the things you like about actual real-life democracy.

I'm having tantrums now?
You are the one making it personal here, I'm just expressing my opinion, which happens to contain an element of vehemence. Sorry you can't handle that, but where politics is concerned people do tend to have quite strong opinions.

They are accountable only to themselves.
I don't think was fooled by Netanyahu's intentions. They knew what they were getting and voted for it.

No need to get nasty.
Every Israeli I know would say you're patronising them but you can carry on presuming all you like. Self-pity isn't the answer; Oh poor Iraelis, victims of their own evil democratically-elected government. And the only shred of hope they had (apart from that offered by their relatively liberal constitution) was that one day the Pixies might come and play in their country and free them from oppression.
You can't be serious. Hey if you dropped out pot then you dropped out. You don't need to justify it.

Nasty is blaming Israeli people for their governments actions. Don't be a cock.
Israeli people are victims of this fascist government as well as Palestinians, being made to do military service, being persecuted for smoking marijuana, I don't know what else but that is enough in itself! It's not everyone from Israel's fault for what their government is doing.
